    OK, glad to hear that.

    The question is, Why were they riled, and was their reaction warranted? I
    think Ken Miller demonstrated that they had a right to be frustrated by DI's
    misrepresentation of the PBS Evolution series.

    My question on the last post was:

    Does this [Mr. Roy's post] strike anyone as something that "would fit right
    into the this [NCSE] list with nary a ripple..."? More seriously, what sort
    of message about the Christian community is most likely to be conveyed by
    the 16 October 2001 post?
